I work on embedded linux system (see http://buildroot.net/) where the
C lib has or NOT the Large File Support.
Could you remove from the top of src/liolib.c :

    /*
    ** POSIX idiosyncrasy!
    ** This definition must come before the inclusion of 'stdio.h'; it
    ** should not affect non-POSIX systems
    */
    #if !defined(_FILE_OFFSET_BITS)
    #define    _LARGEFILE_SOURCE    1
    #define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64
    #endif

and add to CFLAGS : `-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE`.
